test-lib: avoid accidental globbing in match_pattern_list()
We have a custom match_pattern_list() function which we use for matching
test names (like "t1234") against glob-like patterns (like "t1???") for
$GIT_SKIP_TESTS, --verbose-only, etc.
Those patterns may have multiple whitespace-separated elements (e.g.,
"t0* t1234 t5?78"). The callers of match_pattern_list thus pass the
strings unquoted, so that the shell does the usual field-splitting into
separate arguments.
But this also means the shell will do the usual globbing for each
argument, which can result in us seeing an expansion based on what's in
the filesystem, rather than the real pattern. For example, if I have the
path "t5000" in the filesystem, and you feed the pattern "t?000", that
_should_ match the string "t0000", but it won't after the shell has
expanded it to "t5000".
This has been a bug ever since that function was introduced. But it
didn't usually trigger since we typically use the function inside the
trash directory, which has a very limited set of files that are unlikely
to match. It became a lot easier to trigger after edc23840b0 (test-lib:
bring $remove_trash out of retirement, 2021-05-10), because now we match
$GIT_SKIP_TESTS before even entering the trash directory. So the t5000
example above can be seen with:
GIT_SKIP_TESTS=t?000 ./t0000-basic.sh
which should skip all tests but doesn't.
We can fix this by using "set -f" to ask the shell not to glob (which is
in POSIX, so should hopefully be portable enough). We only want to do
this in a subshell (to avoid polluting the rest of the script), which
means we need to get the whole string intact into the match_pattern_list
function by quoting it. Arguably this is a good idea anyway, since it
makes it much more obvious that we intend to split, and it's not simply
sloppy scripting.

merge-recursive: handle rename-to-self case
Directory rename detection can cause transitive renames, e.g. if the two
different sides of history each do one half of:
A/file -> B/file
B/ -> C/
then directory rename detection transitively renames to give us
A/file -> C/file
However, when C/ == A/, note that this gives us
A/file -> A/file.
merge-recursive assumed that any rename D -> E would have D != E. While
that is almost always true, the above is a special case where it is not.
So we cannot do things like delete the rename source, we cannot assume
that a file existing at path E implies a rename/add conflict and we have
to be careful about what stages end up in the output.
This change feels a bit hackish. It took me surprisingly many hours to
find, and given merge-recursive's design causing it to attempt to
enumerate all combinations of edge and corner cases with special code
for each combination, I'm worried there are other similar fixes needed
elsewhere if we can just come up with the right special testcase.
Perhaps an audit would rule it out, but I have not the energy.

Now if a command to make X fails X will be removed, the default
behavior of GNU make is to only do so if "make" itself is interrupted

make: *** Deleting file 'git'
$ file git
git: cannot open `git' (No such file or directory)
Before this change we'd leave the file in place in under this
scenario.
As in db10fc6c09f this allows us to remove patterns of removing
leftover $@ files at the start of rules, since previous failing runs
of the Makefile won't have left those littered around anymore.
I'm not as confident that we should be replacing the "mv $@+ $@"
pattern entirely, since that means that external programs or one of
our other Makefiles might race and get partial content.
I'm not changing $(REMOTE_CURL_ALIASES) since that uses a ln/ln -s/cp

midx: don't reuse corrupt MIDXs when writing
When writing a new multi-pack index, Git tries to reuse as much of the
data from an existing MIDX as possible, like object offsets. This is
done to avoid re-opening a bunch of *.idx files unnecessarily, but can
lead to problems if the data we are reusing is corrupt.
That's because we'll blindly reuse data from an existing MIDX without
checking its trailing checksum for validity. So if there is memory
corruption while writing a MIDX, or disk corruption in the intervening
period between writing and reuse, we'll blindly propagate those bad
values forward.
Suppose we experience a memory corruption while writing a MIDX such that
we write an incorrect object offset (or alternatively, the disk corrupts
the data after being written, but before being reused). Then when we go
to write a new MIDX, we'll reuse the bad object offset without checking
its validity. This means that the MIDX we just wrote is broken, but its
trailing checksum is in-tact, since we never bothered to look at the
values before writing.
In the above, a "git multi-pack-index verify" would have caught the
problem before writing, but writing a new MIDX wouldn't have noticed
anything wrong, blindly carrying forward the corrupt offset.
Individual pack indexes check their validity by verifying the crc32
attached to each entry when carrying data forward during a repack.
We could solve this problem for MIDXs in the same way, but individual
crc32's don't make much sense, since their entries are so small.
Likewise, checking the whole file on every read may be prohibitively
expensive if a repository has a lot of objects, packs, or both.
But we can check the trailing checksum when reusing an existing MIDX
when writing a new one. And a corrupt MIDX need not stop us from writing
a new one, since we can just avoid reusing the existing one at all and
pretend as if we are writing a new MIDX from scratch.

ci: use the new GitHub Action to download git-sdk-64-minimal
In our continuous builds, Windows is the odd cookie that requires a
complete development environment to be downloaded because there is no
suitable one installed by default on Windows.
Side note: technically, there _is_ a development environment present in
GitHub Actions' build agents: MSYS2. But it differs from Git for
Windows' SDK in subtle points, unfortunately enough so to prevent Git's
test suite from running without failures.
Traditionally, we support downloading this environment (which we
nicknamed `git-sdk-64-minimal`) via a PowerShell scriptlet that accesses
the build artifacts of a dedicated Azure Pipeline (which packages a tiny
subset of the full Git for Windows SDK, containing just enough to build
Git and run its test suite).
This PowerShell script is unfortunately not very robust and sometimes
fails due to network issues.
Of course, we could add code to detect that situation, wait a little,
try again, if it fails again wait a little longer, lather, rinse and
repeat.
Instead of doing all of this in Git's own `.github/workflows/`, though,
let's offload this logic to the new GitHub Action at
https://github.com/marketplace/actions/setup-git-for-windows-sdk
This Action not only downloads and extracts git-sdk-64-minimal _outside_
the worktree (making it no longer necessary to meddle with
`.gitignore` or `.git/info/exclude`), it also adds the `bash.exe` to the
`PATH` and sets the environment variable `MSYSTEM` (an implementation
detail that Git's workflow should never have needed to know about).
This allows us to convert all those funny PowerShell tasks that wanted
to call git-sdk-64-minimal's `bash.exe`: they all are now regular `bash`
scriptlets.
This finally lets us get rid of the funny quoting and escaping where we
had to pay attention not only to quote and escape the Bash scriptlets
properly, but also to add a second level of escaping (with backslashes
for double quotes and backticks for dollar signs) to stop PowerShell
from doing unintended things.
Further, this Action uses a fast caching strategy native to GitHub
Actions that should accelerate the download across CI runs:
git-sdk-64-minimal is usually updated once per 24h, and needs to be
cached only once within that period. Caching it (unfortunately only on
a per-branch basis) speeds up the download step, and makes it much more
robust at the same time by virtue of accessing a cache location that is
closer in the network topology.
With this we can drop the home-rolled caching where we try to accelerate
the test phase by uploading git-sdk-64-minimal as a workflow artifact
after using it to build Git, and then download it as workflow artifact
in the test phase.
Even better: the `vs-test` job no longer needs to depend on the
`windows-build` job. The only reason it depended on it was to ensure
that the `git-sdk-64-minimal` workflow artifact was available.

add_ref_decoration(): rename s/type/deco_type/

When we load the ref decorations, we parse the object pointed to by each
ref in order to get a "struct object". This is unnecessarily expensive;
we really only need the object struct, and don't even look at the parsed
contents. The exception is tags, which we do need to peel.
We can improve this by looking up the object type first (which is much
cheaper), and skipping the parse entirely for non-tags. This increases
the work slightly for annotated tags (which now do a type lookup _and_ a
parse), but decreases it a lot for other types. On balance, this seems
to be a good tradeoff.
In my git.git clone, with ~2k refs, most of which are branches, the time
to run "git log -1 --decorate" drops from 34ms to 11ms. Even on my
linux.git clone, which contains mostly tags and only a handful of
branches, the time drops from 30ms to 19ms. And on a more extreme
real-world case with ~220k refs, mostly non-tags, the time drops from
2.6s to 650ms.
That command is a lop-sided example, of course, because it does as
little non-loading work as possible. But it does show the absolute time
improvement. Even in something like a full "git log --decorate" on that
extreme repo, we'd still be saving 2s of CPU time.
Ideally we could push this even further, and avoid parsing even tags, by
relying on the packed-refs "peel" optimization (which we could do by
calling peel_iterated_oid() instead of peeling manually). But we can't
do that here. The packed-refs file only stores the bottom-layer of the
peel (so in a "tag->tag->commit" chain, it stores only the commit as the
peel result). But the decoration code wants to peel the layers
individually, annotating the middle layers of the chain.
If the packed-refs file ever learns to store all of the peeled layers,
then we could switch to it. Or even if it stored a flag to indicate the
peel was not multi-layer (because most of them aren't), then we could
use it most of the time and fall back to a manual peel for the rare
cases.

and only parse tags in order to peel them; checking the type first lets
us avoid parsing the non-tags.
But our lookup_blob(), etc, functions make getting an object struct
annoying: we have to call the right function for every type. And we
cannot just use the generic lookup_object(), because it only returns an
already-seen object; it won't allocate a new object struct.

config: normalize the path of the system gitconfig
Git for Windows is compiled with a runtime prefix, and that runtime
prefix is typically `C:/Program Files/Git/mingw64`. As we want the
system gitconfig to live in the sibling directory `etc`, we define the
relative path as `../etc/gitconfig`.
However, as reported by Philip Oakley, the output of `git config
--show-origin --system -l` looks rather ugly, as it shows the path as
`file:C:/Program Files/Git/mingw64/../etc/gitconfig`, i.e. with the
`mingw64/../` part.
By normalizing the path, we get a prettier path.

cmake(windows): set correct path to the system Git config
Currently, when Git for Windows is built with CMake, the system Git config is
expected in a different location than when building via `make`: the former
expects it to be in `<runtime-prefix>/mingw64/etc/gitconfig`, the latter in
`<runtime-prefix>/etc/gitconfig`.
Because of this, things like `git clone` do not work correctly (because cURL is
no longer able to find its certificate bundle that it needs to validate HTTPS
certificates). See the full bug report and discussion here:

mingw: move Git for Windows' system config where users expect it
Git for Windows' prefix is `/mingw64/` (or `/mingw32/` for 32-bit
versions), therefore the system config is located at the clunky location
`C:\Program Files\Git\mingw64\etc\gitconfig`.
This moves the system config into a more logical location: the `mingw64`
part of `C:\Program Files\Git\mingw64\etc\gitconfig` never made sense,
as it is a mere implementation detail. Let's skip the `mingw64` part and
move this to `C:\Program Files\Git\etc\gitconfig`.
Side note: in the rare (and not recommended) case a user chooses to
install 32-bit Git for Windows on a 64-bit system, the path will of
course be `C:\Program Files (x86)\Git\etc\gitconfig`.
Background: During the Git for Windows v1.x days, the system config was
located at `C:\Program Files (x86)\Git\etc\gitconfig`. With Git for
Windows v2.x, it moved to `C:\Program Files\Git\mingw64\gitconfig` (or
`C:\Program Files (x86)\Git\mingw32\gitconfig`). Rather than fixing it
back then, we tried to introduce a "Windows-wide" config, but that never
caught on.
Likewise, we move the system `gitattributes` into the same directory.
Obviously, we are cautious to do this only for the known install
locations `/mingw64` and `/mingw32`; If anybody wants to override that
while building their version of Git (e.g. via `make prefix=$HOME`), we
leave the default location of the system config and gitattributes alone.

pager: avoid setting COLUMNS when we're guessing its value
We query `TIOCGWINSZ` in Git to determine the correct value for
`COLUMNS`, and then set that environment variable.
If `TIOCGWINSZ` is not available, we fall back to the hard-coded value
80 _and still_ set the environment variable.
On Windows this is a problem. The reason is that Git for
Windows uses a version of `less` that relies on the MSYS2 runtime to
interact with the pseudo terminal (typically inside a MinTTY window,
which is also aware of the MSYS2 runtime). Both MinTTY and `less.exe`
interact with that pseudo terminal via `ioctl()` calls (which the MSYS2
runtime emulates even if there is no such thing on Windows).
Since https://github.com/gwsw/less/commit/bb0ee4e76c2, `less` prefers
the `COLUMNS` variable over asking ncurses itself.
But `git.exe` itself is _not_ aware of the MSYS2 runtime, or for that
matter of that pseudo terminal, and has no way to call `ioctl()` or
`TIOCGWINSZ`.
Therefore, `git.exe` will fall back to hard-coding 80 columns, no matter
what the actual terminal size is.
But `less.exe` is totally able to interact with the MSYS2 runtime and
would not actually require Git's help (which actually makes things
worse here). So let's not override `COLUMNS` on Windows.
Let's just not set `COLUMNS` unless we managed to query the actual value
from the terminal.
This fixes https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/issues/3235

merge-ort: add prefetching for content merges
Commit 7fbbcb21b1 ("diff: batch fetching of missing blobs", 2019-04-05)
introduced batching of fetching missing blobs, so that the diff
machinery would have one fetch subprocess grab N blobs instead of N
processes each grabbing 1.
However, the diff machinery is not the only thing in a merge that needs
to work on blobs. The 3-way content merges need them as well. Rather
than download all the blobs 1 at a time, prefetch all the blobs needed
for regular content merges.
This does not cover all possible paths in merge-ort that might need to
download blobs. Others include:
- The blob_unchanged() calls to avoid modify/delete conflicts (when
blob renormalization results in an "unchanged" file)
- Preliminary content merges needed for rename/add and
rename/rename(2to1) style conflicts. (Both of these types of
conflicts can result in nested conflict markers from the need to do
two levels of content merging; the first happens before our new
prefetch_for_content_merges() function.)
The first of these wouldn't be an extreme amount of work to support, and
even the second could be theoretically supported in batching, but all of
these cases seem unusual to me, and this is a minor performance
optimization anyway; in the worst case we only get some of the fetches
batched and have a few additional one-off fetches. So for now, just
handle the regular 3-way content merges in our prefetching.
For the testcase from the previous commit, the number of downloaded
objects remains at 63, but this drops the number of fetches needed from
32 down to 20, a sizeable reduction.

diffcore-rename: use a different prefetch for basename comparisons
merge-ort was designed to minimize the amount of data needed and used,
and several changes were made to diffcore-rename to take advantage of
extra metadata to enable this data minimization (particularly the
relevant_sources variable for skipping "irrelevant" renames). This
effort obviously succeeded in drastically reducing computation times,
but should also theoretically allow partial clones to download much less
information. Previously, though, the "prefetch" command used in
diffcore-rename had never been modified and downloaded many blobs that
were unnecessary for merge-ort. This commit corrects that.
When doing basename comparisons, we want to fetch only the objects that
will be used for basename comparisons. If after basename fetching this
leaves us with no more relevant sources (or no more destinations), then
we won't need to do the full inexact rename detection and can skip
downloading additional source and destination files. Even if we have to
do that later full inexact rename detection, irrelevant sources are
culled after basename matching and before the full inexact rename
detection, so we can still avoid downloading the blobs for irrelevant
sources. Rename prefetch() to inexact_prefetch(), and introduce a
new basename_prefetch() to take advantage of this.
If we modify the testcase from commit 557ac0350d ("merge-ort: begin
performance work; instrument with trace2_region_* calls", 2021-01-23)
to pass
--sparse --filter=blob:none
to the clone command, and use the new trace2 "fetch_count" output from
a few commits ago to track both the number of fetch subcommands invoked
and the number of objects fetched across all those fetches, then for
the mega-renames testcase we observe the following:
BEFORE this commit, rebasing 35 patches:
strategy # of fetches total # of objects fetched
--------- ------------ --------------------------
recursive 62 11423
ort 30 11391
AFTER this commit, rebasing the same 35 patches:
ort 32 63
This means that the new code only needs to download less than 2 blobs
per patch being rebased. That is especially interesting given that the
repository at the start only had approximately half a dozen TOTAL blobs
downloaded to start with (because the default sparse-checkout of just
the toplevel directory was in use).
So, for this particular linux kernel testcase that involved ~26,000
renames on the upstream side (drivers/ -> pilots/) across which 35
patches were being rebased, this change reduces the number of blobs that
need to be downloaded by a factor of ~180.

also have the different estimate_similarity() callsites start using
different missing_object_cb functions as well. Rather than also passing
that data in, just have the caller pass in the whole
diff_populate_filespec_options, and reduce the number of times we need to

As a side note, this also drops the number of calls to
has_promisor_remote() dramatically. If L is the number of basename
paths to compare, M is the number of inexact sources, and N is the
number of inexact destinations, then the number of calls to
has_promisor_remote() drops from L+M*N down to at most 2 -- one for each

pre-commit hook tests: don't leave "actual" nonexisting on failure
Start by creating an "actual" file in a core.hooksPath test that has
the hook echoing to the "actual" file.
We later test_cmp that file to see what hooks were run. If we fail to
run our hook(s) we'll have an empty list of hooks for the test_cmp
instead of a nonexisting file. For the logic of this test that makes more sense.
See 867ad08a261 (hooks: allow customizing where the hook directory is,
2016-05-04) for the commit that added these tests.

I'm renaming "out" to "actual" for consistency with other tests, and
introducing a "branches.sorted" file in the setup, to make it clear
that it's important that the list be sorted in this particular way.
The "show-branch" output is indented with spaces, which would cause
complaints under "git show --check" with an indented here-doc
block. Let's prefix the lines with "> " to work around that, and to
make it clear that the leading whitespace is important.
We can also get rid of the hardcoding of "main" added here in 334afbc76fb (tests: mark tests relying on the current default for
`init.defaultBranch`, 2020-11-18). For this test we're setting up an
"initial" commit anyway, and now that we've moved over to test_commit
we can reference that instead.

builtin/checkout--worker: zero-initialise struct to avoid MSAN complaints
report_result() sends a struct to the parent process, but that struct
would contain uninitialised padding bytes. Running this code under MSAN
rightly triggers a warning - but we don't particularly care about this
warning because we control the receiving code, and we therefore know
that those padding bytes won't be read on the receiving end.
We could simply suppress this warning under MSAN with the approporiate
ifdef'd attributes, but a less intrusive solution is to 0-initialise the
struct, which guarantees that the padding will also be initialised.
Interestingly, in the error-case branch, we only try to copy the first
two members of pc_item_result, by copying only PC_ITEM_RESULT_BASE_SIZE
bytes. However PC_ITEM_RESULT_BASE_SIZE is defined as
'offsetof(the_last_member)', which means that we're copying padding bytes
after the end of the second last member. We could avoid doing this by
redefining PC_ITEM_RESULT_BASE_SIZE as
'offsetof(second_last_member) + sizeof(second_last_member)', but there's
no huge benefit to doing so (and this patch silences the MSAN warning in
this scenario either way).

Depending on which hashing algorithm is being used, only part of

subtree: fix the GIT_EXEC_PATH sanity check to work on Windows
In 22d550749361 (subtree: don't fuss with PATH, 2021-04-27), `git
subtree` was broken thoroughly on Windows.
The reason is that it assumes Unix semantics, where `PATH` is
colon-separated, and it assumes that `$GIT_EXEC_PATH:` is a verbatim
prefix of `$PATH`. Neither are true, the latter in particular because
`GIT_EXEC_PATH` is a Windows-style path, while `PATH` is a Unix-style
path list.
Let's make extra certain that `$GIT_EXEC_PATH` and the first component
of `$PATH` refer to different entities before erroring out.
We do that by using the `test <path1> -ef <path2>` command that verifies
that the inode of `<path1>` and of `<path2>` is the same.
Sadly, this construct is non-portable, according to
https://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/009695399/utilities/test.html.
However, it does not matter in practice because we still first look
whether `$GIT_EXEC_PREFIX` is string-identical to the first component of
`$PATH`. This will give us the expected result everywhere but in Git for
Windows, and Git for Windows' own Bash _does_ handle the `-ef` operator.
Just in case that we _do_ need to show the error message _and_ are
running in a shell that lacks support for `-ef`, we simply suppress the
error output for that part.
This fixes https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/issues/3260

bitmaps: don't recurse into trees already in the bitmap
If an object is already mentioned in a reachability bitmap we are
building, then by definition so are all of the objects it can reach. We
have an optimization to stop traversing commits when we see they are
already in the bitmap, but we don't do the same for trees.
It's generally unavoidable to recurse into trees for commits not yet
covered by bitmaps (since most commits generally do have unique
top-level trees). But they usually have subtrees that are shared with
other commits (i.e., all of the subtrees the commit _didn't_ touch). And
some of those commits (and their trees) may be covered by the bitmap.
Usually this isn't _too_ big a deal, because we'll visit those subtrees
only once in total for the whole walk. But if you have a large number of
unbitmapped commits, and if your tree is big, then you may end up
opening a lot of sub-trees for no good reason.
We can use the same optimization we do for commits here: when we are
about to open a tree, see if it's in the bitmap (either the one we are
building, or the "seen" bitmap which covers the UNINTERESTING side of
the bitmap when doing a set-difference).
This works especially well because we'll visit all commits before
hitting any trees. So even in a history like:
A -- B
if "A" has a bitmap on disk but "B" doesn't, we'll already have OR-ed in
the results from A before looking at B's tree (so we really will only
look at trees touched by B).
For most repositories, the timings produced by p5310 are unspectacular.
Here's linux.git:
Any improvement there is within the noise (the +3.1% on test 7 has to be
noise, since we are not recursing into trees, and thus the new code
isn't even run). The results for git.git are likewise uninteresting.
But here are numbers from some other real-world repositories (that are
not public). This one's tree is comparable in size to linux.git, but has
~16k refs (and so less complete bitmap coverage):
This patch provides substantial improvements in these larger cases, and
have any drawbacks for smaller ones (the cost of the bitmap check is
quite small compared to an actual tree traversal).
Note that we have to add a version of revision.c's include_check
callback which handles non-commits. We could possibly consolidate this
into a single callback for all objects types, as there's only one user
of the feature which would need converted (pack-bitmap.c:should_include).
That would in theory let us avoid duplicating any logic. But when I
tried it, the code ended up much worse to read, with lots of repeated
"if it's a commit do this, otherwise do that". Having two separate
callbacks splits that naturally, and matches the existing split of
show_commit/show_object callbacks.

rewrap text, if needed. Reword the affected sentence in
Documentation/RelNotes/1.8.4.txt for it to make sense.

cmake: add warning for ignored MSGFMT_EXE
It does not make sense to attempt to set MSGFMT_EXE when NO_GETTEXT is
configured, as such add a check for NO_GETTEXT before attempting to set
it.

cmake: create compile_commands.json by default
Some users have expressed interest in a more "batteries included" way of
building via CMake[1], and a big part of that is providing easier access
to tooling external tools.
A straightforward way to accomplish this is to make it as simple as
possible is to enable the generation of the compile_commands.json file,
which is supported by many tools such as: clang-tidy, clang-format,
sourcetrail, etc.
This does come with a small run-time overhead during the configuration
step (~6 seconds on my machine):
Time to configure with CMAKE_EXPORT_COMPILE_COMMANDS=TRUE
real 1m9.840s
user 0m0.031s
sys 0m0.031s
Time to configure with CMAKE_EXPORT_COMPILE_COMMANDS=FALSE
real 1m3.195s
user 0m0.015s
sys 0m0.015s
This seems like a small enough price to pay to make the project more
accessible to newer users. Additionally there are other large projects
like llvm [2] which has had this enabled by default for >6 years at the
time of this writing, and no real negative consequences that I can find
with my search-skills.
NOTE: That the compile_commands.json is currently produced only when
using the Ninja and Makefile generators. See The CMake documentation[3]
for more info.

cmake: add knob to disable vcpkg
When building on windows users have the option to use vcpkg to provide
the dependencies needed to compile. Previously, this was used only when
using the Visual Studio generator which was not ideal because:
- Not all users who want to use vcpkg use the Visual Studio
generators.
- Some versions of Visual Studio 2019 moved away from using the
VS 2019 generator by default, making it impossible for Visual
Studio to configure the project in the likely event that it couldn't
find the dependencies.
- Inexperienced users of CMake are very likely to get tripped up by
the errors caused by a lack of vcpkg, making the above bullet point
both annoying and hard to debug.
As such, let's make using vcpkg the default on windows. Users who want
to avoid using vcpkg can disable it by passing -DNO_VCPKG=TRUE.
